Foods for a Healthy Weight
Saturday, June 13, 2026 10:30 AM to 11:30 AM

This class educates participants to the benefit of a plant based high fiber diet in helping to maintain weight and improve overall health.  
Nutrition education components help individuals to connect diet and disease outcomes while they are simultaneously learning about easy-to-prepare plant-based recipes. Not only are ingredients and recipes budget-friendly and accessible, but minimal kitchen tools are required for food preparation. Participants will take away knowledge and strategies that will help them to realize savings in the short- and long-term, both in terms of their dollars saved and enhanced quality of life. Each class features a cooking demonstration with samples of delicious and health-promoting dishes, along with handouts of easy and affordable recipes participants can prepare at home.

Each class attendee will leave with a small kitchen at the end of the class.
